Snyder of Berlin Open Pit Barbecue Potato Chips

Taste test: These potato chips were thin and had a bit of orange seasoning on them.

We crunched in to find a nice brittle crunch and one of the tastiest barbecue seasonings we've ever had. The flavor was at once sweet, vinegary and hot, with a whole array of spices giving them a great taste. Our snackers were quite thrilled, as they kept returning to the bag for additional handfuls. Excellent.

Smell test: Wow, really nice. Sweet and smoky, and something about the smell really reminded me of a woodfire.

From the package: “Our tangy new Open Pit barbecue flavor chips will be the perfect addition to your next gathering. The tangy surprise of mouth-watering flavor will turn any occasion into a picnic. One bite will remind you of the authentic Midwest flavor captured in every bottle of Open Pit BBQ sauce. The chips are the perfect accompaniment to any dish — or perfect by the handful! No need to fire up the grill .. just break open a bag and share.”
